Perfluorooctanoic acid
6.9ng/L
Each block = 4.0 ng/L federal MCL (2024)
Short answer: PFOA is above its federal limit (a 2024 limit that water systems have until at least 2029 to meet); 1 more is detected with no federal limit, and everything else measured is within its reference or not detected. Yorktown Consold. Water Dist.#1 serves 36,000 residents.
Your water bill or annual water quality report names your actual supplier.
The bar is drawn in blocks of the 4.0 ng/L federal MCL (2024), so the length shows how far above it the result sits.

YORKTOWN CONSOLD. WATER DIST.#1 (EPA PWSID NY5903469) delivers surface water to 36,000 residents. This report reflects 29 individual PFAS result(s) from the source UCMR5 observations and the latest Lead & Copper Rule 90th-percentile result. Water hardness and disinfectant type are pending the utility's own annual report.
2health-based violations in the last 10 years
From EPA SDWIS. Counted once per contaminant per year, as in the Track record score. All 4 EPA filings are listed below.
No result is not a pass. Your utility's annual water quality report may list them, and a certified lab test covers your own tap.
Every filing is listed; the Track record score counts at most one per contaminant per year.

Plumbing inside a home can add lead that the system record can't show. A tap test tells you what reaches your glass.
PFOA 6.9 ng/L, above the 4 ng/L limit (+3 more PFAS detected)
lead 1.2 µg/L, below the 15 µg/L action level
Screening tells you if something is worth a closer look; a lab result is the number you can act on.

Lead, read as one of three ranges: 0–4, 5–15 or 15+ ppb
What it can't tell you: It shows a lead range, not an exact level, and tests nothing else unless you pay extra for the optional lab test.
Lab-certified results
ETR Laboratories
50+ substances, including lead, copper, arsenic, nitrate, hardness and coliform bacteria
What it can't tell you: It does not test PFAS, and not every result on the panel falls under the lab's accredited scope.

PurityMap does not give a safe/unsafe verdict; it shows what the public records measured. For Jefferson Valley-Yorktown, PFOA 6.9 ng/L was measured above the 4 ng/L federal limit in EPA's 2024 testing; the lead 90th-percentile result was 1.2 µg/L against the 15 µg/L action level. YORKTOWN CONSOLD. WATER DIST.#1 (PWSID NY5903469) has a Purity Score of 60/100 (confidence: moderate), assessed at the water-system level and computed only from contaminants that were measured. Water can change in your own pipes, so a certified test is the only way to know what comes out of your tap.
YORKTOWN CONSOLD. WATER DIST.#1 (PWS ID NY5903469) is the public water system on record for Jefferson Valley-Yorktown, New York, serving about 36,000 people. Confirm the utility on your water bill before acting on a specific finding.
Surface water (primary source of record in EPA SDWIS).
Yes. In EPA's UCMR 5 testing (2024-01-24 to 2024-10-08), PFOA was measured at 6.9 ng/L against a 4 ng/L federal limit. PFBS (3 ng/L, below the 2,000 ng/L EPA health advisory) and PFHxA (3.1 ng/L, below the 400,000 ng/L state limit) were also detected. PFPeA (3.3 ng/L) was also detected; it has no federal or state limit. Reverse osmosis and filters certified to NSF/ANSI 53 for PFOA/PFOS reduce them at the tap.
YORKTOWN CONSOLD. WATER DIST.#1's most recent lead 90th-percentile result (2023–2025) was 1.2 µg/L, below the 15 µg/L action level. That figure comes from sampled homes; lead usually enters from a building's own pipes and fixtures, so only a test at your tap tells you what you drink.
PurityMap's current record for Jefferson Valley-Yorktown holds 31 findings: 1 above a reference, 3 detected within the reference, 1 detected with no limit and 26 not detected. Each finding links to its dated public record; a parameter that was never monitored is shown as pending, not as a pass.
